CraneOps takes a job from quote to paid without losing a ticket, a signature, or an hour along the way. Built by someone who approves crane invoices from the buyer's side every day.
One unbroken chain. Every link documented, defensible, and ready for audit.
A customer claims the crane was on site six hours, not eight, three weeks after the job. With a paper ticket in a truck console, you eat the difference. With a signed field POD, the dispute disappears.
On industrial work, the clock doesn't begin until the invoice is approved. A clean, complete invoice gets approved in days. A messy one sits for weeks before Net 90 even starts counting.
Your office manager spends a day a week chasing tickets, re-keying into QuickBooks, and fighting disputes. That's not billing. That's firefighting work the system should already have done.
When the IRS asks for three years of per-diem proof, or OSHA wants the inspection logs, "let me dig through the files" is the wrong answer. The right one is a button.
Every step feeds the next. The data you capture once carries all the way through — and feeds QuickBooks instead of replacing it.
Build a quote with multiple cranes, bare rentals, and specialty rigging on one job. Rates lock the moment it's accepted.
The crew logs every piece of equipment used, right from the field, on a form that reads as the job site they recognize.
The customer signs off in the field, timestamped, with photos attached. That signature is what kills the dispute later.
A clean, complete invoice generates the same day — as PDF, CSV, or Excel, in the format each customer's AP team requires.
Approved faster because there's nothing to question. The whole chain stays on record, ready for the next audit.
Fifteen years in industrial — from the field as a pipefitter and welder, through planning and turnaround coordination, to contract administration at a major Gulf Coast chemical plant.
Most software for this industry is built by software people who interviewed a few crane companies. CraneOps wasn't.
I spend my days managing contractors at a chemical plant — including crane crews — and I'm the one who approves or kicks back their invoices. I've watched clean billing get approved in a day and sloppy billing sit for weeks. I've seen what a missing signature costs, what an audit demands, and why a late invoice can mean six figures denied.
Every feature in CraneOps exists because I watched the problem it solves play out on real jobs, from both sides of the deal. That's the part a competitor can't copy.
Tell me about your operation and I'll set up CraneOps with your actual rates and equipment, then walk you through exactly what your billing would look like.
